Method
- In a large bowl, beat softened butter with brown and white sugars until fluffy.
- Mix in eggs one at a time, followed by vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture until dough forms.
- Fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- Refrigerate dough for at least 1 hour to prevent spreading during baking.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Scoop dough balls onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Let cookies rest 5 minutes on the tray, then transfer to a cooling rack.

Notes
Chill the dough for at least an hour — or overnight for best results. For a gourmet twist, top with flaky sea salt before baking. Want variation? Add nuts, coconut, or chopped caramel. Cookies freeze well either baked or as dough balls for later baking.
